Alongside Bespoke Bureau, Sara Vestin Rahmani also founded The British Butler Academy, which provides practical household and service training through both in-person programmes and online courses.

Sara Vestin Rahmani works with private households, estates, and organisations across the UK, Europe, and internationally.

Her work often involves environments where discretion, operational structure, and high service standards are essential — including fully staffed residences and complex household operations.

This international experience informs both her recruitment approach and training delivery.

Sara’s approach prioritises practical implementation over theory.

In recruitment, this means aligning candidates not only with the role itself, but with the structure, expectations, and working style of each household.

In training, the emphasis is on real-world application — ensuring service standards are understood, sustainable, and consistently maintained over time.

This approach has been shaped by more than two decades of experience working with private households, candidates, and domestic teams internationally. You can read more about the principles behind her work in Sara Vestin Rahmani’s Recruitment Philosophy.
